Ford 800 series maintenance and repair

I just bought a Ford 850 and know little about it. I would like to get a book or other helpful sources to help with fluid changes and other adjustments. Maybe small repairs also. Does anyone have a suggestion?

I got an 800 with my house -- if you find a good answer let me know. I see mine has the 2 position clutch and the two brakes on the right side -- missing the emergency brake where i see the spline but no lever??

I am wondering the same stuff myself and i think the alternator might be gone killing the battery -- i have found some manuals on ebay, but i havent figured out the serial numbers yety to know which one to buy?

If i find anything i will let you know,

Rick

Short of getting the factory service manual I'd recommend getting an I&T manual. They're available through many sources online, at many farm & fleet type stores, and even through some equipment dealers. Priced pretty reasonable, too.

I would suggest you get the tractor parts manual they're available through many sources online, at many farm & fleet type stores, and even through some equipment dealers in cheap prices

guys the serial # is on the left side above the starter on the flat area of the trans . Also if you restore the tractor you will find that a master parts manual will be very helpful .
